Angry Birds day was a personal favorite for all the tech savvy members of camp, which was clearly displayed by the epic turnout of Angry Birds paraphernalia, ranging from caps, t shirts, and pajama pants, to full body costumes. I want to give a shout out to the awesome “koko crew” for even making an unbelievable, life size, Angry Birds house. It looked fantastic!
My favorite activity was the real live angry birds game in the gym. The game went as follows: There were two teams on two sides of the gym. The camper’s of each team had to build a big house made of card board boxes. Next, all of the counselors stood in a straight line a couple of feet in front of the structures, as the campers from the other side threw Angry Bird dolls of all shapes and sizes over them, trying to destroy each others card board houses. Some counselors even decided to get down and dirty, and made a human pyramid for the campers to knock down. Other than a slingshot, it was as close to playing a real live game of Angry birds as possible. It was awesome!!
During our delicious steak supper, Camp Simcha Special’s Tikkunei ‘12 color war broke out. The teams are green versus blue, zochar versus shomer…It should be quite some battle!
Night activity was starring “The sultan of Simon”, Steve Max. Steve has been coming to Camp Simcha Special since 1997, and for good reason. He made the simple game of “simple simon says” into a fun filled, at some times surprisingly difficult, action packed night. It was clear from all of the campers faces that they thoroughly enjoyed the fun, highly interactive show!
